One approach, which may not be sanctioned and may have risks, is to add code to your mba, which imports the data from the BootstrapperApplicationData.xml. There are examples of a class here which you may need to modify for a specific purpose.

This value is used as the name of the registry key in the 32 bit ARP Uninstall key to register the bundle with ARP. You can install your bundle, then launch it again and compare the BootstrapperApplicationData.xml in the cache subfolder of %temp% with the registry key where the bundle is registered with ARP. One approach might be in the mba to get the BundleId and pass it to a MSI in the bundle chain as a MsiProperty, which then writes the information to a location known by Program A. Program A could then look up the BundleId to locate the ARP registry entry for the bundle, and learn the modify path and command. There may be issues with this approach when using web downloads or when some future implementation of the wix tools are released since it is based on current implementation details which may change. -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/WiX-Burn-managing-installed-products-after-initial-install-tp7595346p7595368.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ HPCC Systems Open Source Big Data Platform from LexisNexis Risk Solutions Find What Matters Most in Your Big Data with HPCC Systems Open Source.
